The Alpha stainless is a fixed caster designed for demanding industrial applications including catering carts and meal delivery systems, container construction, electronic systems and clean-room technology, fire fighting technology and fire protection, machine construction, and transport equipment. The caster features a rectangular plate fitting that provides secure mounting to equipment and machinery. The housing is constructed from heavy-duty stainless steel and incorporates two ball races in the swivel bearing assembly, ensuring smooth operation and extended service life in corrosive environments. The wheel assembly consists of a 4.92-inch diameter wheel with a polyamide body and an elastic tire with non-marking, vulcanized tread material that protects floors and surfaces while maintaining excellent traction. The wheel is supported by a precision ball bearing that is sealed to prevent contamination and maintain consistent performance. The overall height of the caster is 6.1 inches, making it suitable for integration into various equipment configurations. The caster delivers a static load capacity of 1,102.31 pounds, while the dynamic load capacity reaches 551.16 pounds at a maximum speed of 2.49 miles per hour, providing reliable performance under both stationary and mobile operating conditions.
